Bukayo Saka and other teammates celebrated with Noni Madueke online after the winger scored his first Arsenal goal in a crucial Champions League victory over Bayern Munich.
Arsenal’s Noni Madueke received praise from fellow England international Bukayo Saka and other teammates after scoring his first goal for the club during the Champions League victory against Bayern Munich.
The 3-1 win, secured by goals from Jurrien Timber, Madueke, and Gabriel Martinelli, saw Mikel Arteta’s side move to the top of the Champions League league phase, according to a report from Football London.
Arsenal has maintained a perfect record in the competition this season, winning all five games while conceding only once to Bayern’s Lennart Karl.
Following his goal, Madueke, who recently returned from injury, shared images of his celebration on Instagram alongside William Saliba and others, captioning the post with an “eight-word message”: “Thank you God for this brotherhood you’ve created. [Red love heart]”
Saka responded to the post with two emojis (clapping hands and a heart), while Declan Rice commented: “Couldn’t be happier for you bro.” Martinelli and Eberechi Eze also commented with heart emojis.
Speaking after the win, Madueke described the evening: “It was a top night, great night. A Champions League night, so it was perfect to get my first goal for the club and for the win on top. It’s a perfect night.”
The goal provides a significant confidence boost for the 23-year-old ahead of this weekend’s clash against his former club, Chelsea.
